johnson, great to have you with us tonight. who will profit from all of this, from detroit's bankruptcy? and your take on the potential ripple effect and what's unfolding. >> well, this is an opportunity for bankruptcy lawyers who get paid when they're flying in the airplane to go to meetings to charge $750 an hour. and there will be hundreds of millions of dollars paid out, hundreds of millions just in detroit. if what happens in detroit continues elsewhere, we'll see similar problems. michigan state constitution has a provision you cannot cut a public employee's pension. that seems real clear except the next provision of the constitution says every year you have to put enough money aside for the new pension benefits. a lot of the cities haven't been doing it. that's why saginaw has a bond issue. it's to catch up and put enough money in there. part of the theft in pengs to people, has been corporations, making it up later. that's what's going on here. >> a federal judge circumvented the state's constitution. as i see it right
